The first thing a knife user will notice about the new Shuffle is its compact size and wide little blade. The next things they’ll notice are how nicely the finger contours fit the hand, how Kershaw’s new K-TextureTM handle provides an extra secure grip, and how useful that stubby little blade really is.

But the Shuffle has some additional tricks up its sleeve: It also has a flathead screwdriver at the butt of the knife, which doubles as a lanyard attachment, and a handy bottlecap lifter built into the back of the knife.

The blade is made of 8Cr13MoV stainless steel known for its ability to hold an edge, strength, and hardness. The K-Texture handle—composed of a repeating pattern of the Kershaw logo “k”—is exclusive to Kershaw and enhances grip. A liner lock secures the Shuffle’s blade open in use, but closes easily when its tasks are done.

As a utility knife, a work knife, or just a great multi-function pocketknife, the Shuffle (model 3700) is the right choice.
